Chapter 98: The Old Patriarch of the Lu Family is Dying, Seizing the Opportunity to Plunder

At this moment, inside the Lu Family residence.

Many elders of the Lu Family gathered together, filled with worry.

"How is the Old Patriarch doing?" One elder asked.

"The Old Patriarch can only hold on for three more months. In fact, if it weren't for us, he would have passed away long ago and wouldn't have lasted until now."

"But even so, it has reached the Old Patriarch's limit."

"Life force is depleted, it is the will of heaven, something beyond human control." Another elder, Lu He, said helplessly.

He also wanted to keep their Old Patriarch alive, but unfortunately, it seemed that the heavens didn't want that.

"What does the Young Master say? When will the Immortal Mist Sect's rescue arrive?" A white-haired elder asked.

"The Young Master said that the main sect's rescue is about to arrive and we need to hold on for a while longer." Elder Lu Ming said with a strange expression.

"Damn it!" The white-haired elder cursed angrily. "It has been over two years. They said the main sect's rescue was coming soon, but we haven't even seen a trace. Two years later, it will probably be forever. I think the Immortal Mist Sect has clearly given up on this woman and on our Misty Cloud City. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a single Immortal Mist Sect cultivator coming here until now."

He was extremely angry.

Over two years ago, the Lu Family believed in the nonsense of that Young Master Leng Yuxi, who said that the Immortal Mist Sect's Gold Core expert was about to make a move, sweeping away all the evil spirits.

But who could have expected that the Gold Core expert of the Immortal Mist Sect wouldn't even show up?

Until now, Misty Cloud City was still fighting alone, resisting the army of the Shadow Demon Sect.

"Elder, I once heard from that Immortal Mist Sect cultivator that Leng Yuxi was poisoned by a Shadow Demon Sect cultivator, damaging her foundation, and it's basically hopeless for her to advance to the Gold Core stage."

"It's probably because of this news that the Immortal Mist Sect chose to give up on Misty Cloud City."

"After all, dispatching a large army to arrive at Misty Cloud City and fight against the Shadow Demon Sect is only to save a cultivator with no hope."

"Even if she is the Sect Master's daughter, it's not worth the loss."

"Once they fail, the Immortal Mist Sect's orthodoxy will probably be completely destroyed."

Elder Lu Ming mysteriously revealed the information he had learned.

"What? Why didn't you say such an important piece of news earlier? Why are you only saying it now?" Upon hearing this, many elders of the Lu Family's faces changed drastically. They never expected that there would be such a change in Leng Yuxi.

No wonder she was a Foundation Building stage cultivator.

But the threat she posed to them didn't seem as great as they had imagined.

For the past two years, this woman had been in seclusion, basically ignoring the affairs of Misty Cloud City.

They had thought that she was planning to advance to the Gold Core stage, but they didn't expect her to be detoxifying herself.

"Elder, this news is just hearsay for me, and I'm not a hundred percent sure about it."

"It's only at this moment that I dare to speak up, otherwise it would shake the morale."

"And the Shadow Demon Sect is not a good group of people. Who doesn't know that treachery is common among demonic cultivators?"

"Who would believe the promises of a demonic cultivator? That would mean they think their own life is too long."

Elder Lu Ming felt wronged.

After all, he thought that this news might not be true, and he only treated it as an interesting story.

Who could have expected that it was true?

"Alright, alright, Lu Ming didn't mean it. Now it's a matter of life and death for our Lu Family. Everyone should stop quarreling. The most important thing now is how to preserve the flame of our Lu Family."

The Grand Elder, Lu He, said in a deep voice.

"Fortunately, we had already sent out the seeds of the Foundation Building from the Lu family before. We also have a high-quality Foundation Building Pill. Even if we die, the Lu family still has a chance to rise again."

An elder of the Lu family expressed his relief.

In order to prevent the Lu family from being wiped out, when the high-quality Foundation Building Pill was auctioned, they immediately sent the seed of the Lu family's Foundation Building out quietly.

In this way, even if the Lu family in Misty Cloud City is destroyed, there are still other branches of the Lu family that can rise.

"Elder, although that's what you say, I still don't want to die."

Elder Lu Ming said softly.

According to their previous methods, there are still disciples of the Lu family outside, so the Lu family will not be completely wiped out.

The problem is, these people are doomed to die.

If they can still survive, who would be willing to die?

The other elders fell silent, as they had the same thoughts.

"In fact, I have already discussed with the ancestor. Since we can't rely on the Immortal Mist Sect, we can only rely on ourselves."

The grand elder, Lu He, said in a deep voice, "Although the ancestor only has three months of life left, he still has one last breath and can launch one final attack.

In this attack, he will take away several Foundation Building cultivators from the Shadow Demon Sect. At that time, the disciples of our Lu family can take advantage of the chaos to escape from Misty Cloud City and break free from the encirclement of the Shadow Demon Sect."

What?!

As soon as these words were spoken, many elders became spirited. If it was the ancestor himself who made a move, then with the ancestor as the vanguard, they might still have a glimmer of hope.

However, after this battle, the ancestor would undoubtedly die.

But if you think about it carefully, even without this matter, the ancestor's lifespan would still be exhausted.

It's better to burst out with a brilliant light at the last moment of life.

This is also the idea of the Lu family's ancestor, Lu Hongran.

"Alright, that's the plan."

The grand elder, Lu He, said, "But only you elders know about this matter. Don't tell the others to avoid alerting the enemy. After all, there are many demonic cultivators lurking in Misty Cloud City. If those demonic cultivators find out about this, our Lu family will have no way out. Everyone must be careful."

"Yes, grand elder."

Many elders of the Lu family nodded in unison.

...

At this time, Zhou Sui, who was lurking in the dark, also sensed the content of this meeting.

Although these elders were cautious, they didn't know that someone was eavesdropping on their conversation.

"The Lu family's ancestor is going to die?"

"And they actually want to break through?!"

Zhou Sui rubbed his chin and felt very surprised because, according to the current situation, they could hold on for another year or so.

He originally thought he would need to lurk for a long time.

But now it seems that he overestimated the strength of the Lu family.

If the Lu family's ancestor is still alive, they might be able to hold on.

But once the Foundation Building ancestor of the Lu family dies, it will definitely be impossible to continue holding on.

So it's better to take advantage of the ancestor's remaining strength and break through the encirclement.

In this way, the Lu family can survive to some extent, instead of being completely wiped out.

"If that's the case, then I need to prepare in advance."

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.

Obviously, if the Lu family's ancestor dies, there will be hardly anyone who can stop him.

By then, many treasures of the Lu family will belong to him, won't they?!

But this matter still needs careful consideration. It can't afford any mistakes.

It's about time to repay the grudge of the Lu family.
